So the Kia Niro EV is a $40k crossover with 239 miles of range. It's not as fast as a Tesla, but it's a very nice car and has many nice features. It also doesn't have lots of the fit and finish problems Teslas tend to have.

I still wouldn't write off other manufacturers yet, and some companies like Hyundai/Kia invest massive amounts into alternative powertrains.

The Niro PHEV is a really nice little car and clocks in quite a bit cheaper, or at least it did when my wife and I were looking

The Hyundai Kona EV looks quite nice too. 258 mile range.
